Enjoyed this very much

Beautiful

Elsie - problem solving at her best! Love it.

What a lovely, wonderful story! I could absolutely hear it all in their true voices. Fabulous!

I've been eagerly anticipating a Charles/Elsie fic from you, and this does not disappoint. It's lovely how you've managed to capture them so completely in such a tender, private moment. I think here it's Elsie who is my favorite. She shines in these potentially awkward, necessary conversations. And I can perfectly envision Charles' look of... shall we call it titillated horror in response to Elsie's claim that their must be infinite ways to perform such an act.

In particular, her description of him as a rule-follower and herself as a problem-solver was absolute perfection. It would absolutely be up to her to guide them in this new territory. What a beautiful moment between these two.

Another insightful story from you. It is very sad to see Carson so depressed, defeated and low because of his shaking Infirmity and the inevitable changes it has forced on him. It has even affected his view of himself as a married man, and he has built up a veritable wall of defences to keep him from testing or trying to come to terms with his fear of failure in his intimate relations.
Fortunately, Elsie is courageous enough to take him and his walls on. It is very satisfying that she likens Charles' behaviour and feelings to her own before their marriage, describes Charles' operations in the world as rule-follower contrasting with herself as a problem- solver. And she's ultimately successful!
Thankful for this clever, thoughtful story. More please.

I'm so enjoying your series of stories after the last episode. You really have a lock on these characters, Robert, Mary, Mrs. Hughes, and of course Carson. But this one ended...too soon!

Tough subject to tackle, and beautifully delivered. Like the analysis- he, the rule follower, she the problem solver. But don't stop here- Help them find their way, Edward!

Wonderful

This is so good - I love the nuanced way you describe the relationship between Charles and Mary and that Mary is quite aware of the difficulties and the challenges Mr Carson has to face. I wonder what Elsie will say when she comes home and Charles tells her about his visit. I think she'll be pleasantly surprised.

Brilliant! You continue to write these two so true to their characters. Well done!

Ahhhhh just perfect! I do hope you continue

This was sensitively written. hope to see more

Looved it! I totally see poor Charlie behaving like this, amazing story! :D

Another wonderful story from you - and very in character (I can't believe she really called him Charlie in the CS...).

They seemed to discuss a lot more than 'it' here (though veiled) and that made the story very special and a joy to read.
